U know damn well Bama is Auburns Natty game. Hell, Bama is everybodys Natty game. That's the downside of being dominant for yrs. I tell u what, not many teams are beating a motivated Auburn team at Jordan Hare. And that game is after a long stretch of SEC games where everyone is trying to knock off Bama.
This is the most delusional argument. You're gassing up a 6-6 team that lost by 21 at home to New Mexico State because they were "playing hard that week".
So does Alabama not play hard in their rivalry game? When they're competing for a playoff spot in the next-to-last week of the season, are they not really trying? Or is a motivated Auburn squad just as good as a motivated Alabama squad?
South Florida almost beat Bama, but nobody brings them up. Probably cuz they know the current Bama team is way better than a week 3 or 4 Bama team
I've brought that game up repeatedly and every time I did, SEC fanatics tried to claim that week didn't count.
We're talking about the same "current Alabama team" that just needed a miracle to beat 6-6 Auburn last week, right?
Tony D'Amato: "EVERYONE KNOWS THAT A WEEK 14 ALABAMA TEAM IS WAY BETTER THAN THAT WEEK 13 ALABAMA TEAM!"
We need a full list of games that don't count anymore
Florida State's blowout over LSU - doesn't count
Texas's double-digit win over Alabama - doesn't count
Alabama needing a miracle to beat Auburn - doesn't count
Alabama struggling to beat South Florida - doesn't count
Louisville beating Notre Dame - doesn't count
ACC Championship - doesn't count
Big-12 Championship - doesn't count
Did I miss any?
